You should have already completed all of the flashcard for the physical topic (topic 4).
We will be posting support for your flashcards on SMHW.
This will include the full list of flashcards for each topic, not just the ones for the in class assessment.
GCSE pod is really useful to help you understand and revise some of the challenging topics. I have created a playlist for ‘UK evolving physical landscapes’ (see here) and ‘UK evolving human landscapes’ (see here)
Watch the pods to help support you with your flashcards
Once you have made your flashcards test yourself or get someone else to test you. You may find it a good idea to re-write from memory too, especially if it is a flashcards that you are having difficulty memorising.
